5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Guide! Glad I got this one, June 24, 2007

By	Patananni (Boston) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Frommer's Arizona 2007 (Frommer's Complete) (Paperback)

I didn't buy this online. I visited the local bookstore and took every book on Arizona off the shelf and looked at them all and chose this book because it had what I considered the best overall layout and approach. It turned out to be an **excellent** guide for our week-long Arizona trip. The book provides just enough information on each area as well as suggested drives and activities. I found it to be extremely helpful. Unlike other guidebooks, this one has a personality shining through. There's a person behind the information---you'll find language like 'this is my favorite..." or "...is why I like this ..." Some of the descriptive passages are very well-written. The information was timely and helpful, too. We constantly referred to it and felt very good about our choice of guidebooks. It was so helpful, I made a mental note to go back and write this review...

5.0 out of 5 stars WORTH THE PRICE, May 6, 2008

By	Sookie Stackhouse (Puerto Rico) - See all my reviews

This was an excellent guide for people who have never been to Arizona. You can't get lost with it. The way it's organized makes it easy to read. You can go directly to the section you need without wasting time flipping the pages.

5.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable Travel Guide!, October 13, 2008

By	Aloha Grandma (Diamond, OH) - See all my reviews

We used this travel guide on our recent trip to Arizona. We had never been to Arizona before,so we used the rating system to help us chose what not to miss. We are so glad we took the time to use it to research ahead of time. We had a great trip with the help of Frommer's Arizona 2008!
